He declared that there were 50600 votes cast which were never countei, but that despite this “the Kansas court declined to permit a recount,” Rabbit Fur Instead of Ermine. “You will be cited for contempt,” cried someone in the audience. . “That’s all right,” answered the speaker; “I always said that the fur of a jack rabbit should be - substi- tuted for the ermine.” Col. Roosevelt made it plain in his address that the program | of the Progressive party does not con- template making terms with the Re- publican party as a party. He said in Heffect that the new party had come to stdéy arid expected eventually to attract to its bannér the Progressives who still give allegiance to the Republican and Democratic organizatiohs. As to leadership, Col. Roosevelt said tthe events of the next year or two }coula be trusted to develop the best men; who must be chosen without def- erence to their own desires but solely with regard to the needs of the people. Progressives in Congress and in the State Legislatures were urged to get together and push progressive legisla- tion, but they were also counseled to support legislation that would carry out the principles of the new party, regard- less of what party might introduce it. Stient as to Campaign, Addressing the Progressive National Committee and“bther leaders, Roosevelt congratulated them or what had been accomplished in the short time since the party was organized and gave hope for the future. He did not refer to the out- come of the campaign, but dwelt briefly | on the action of the Chicago convention. He said in part: *"The men who took part in,- profited by or condoned and indorsed the theft of the Chicago convention should never again be trusted by men who believe in/ honesty. “Our people, and especially our pro- gressive members, must ever keep in mind that. the Progressive party is by its platform committed to the doctrine that these measures we advocate are to Tbecome part of the law of the land, pro- vided we can get the people to stand for them. If legislator, executive or court stands in the way, then in lawful and orderly fashion and along the ‘fines*idid’y down in the national Progressive plat~-} fdrm, we intend to see that the will of the people is carried out; and that judge, legislator and executive officer alike do their full part in thus aerrying out the will of the people. “No party which denies to the people the right to sécure justice, as we. Prp- gressives propose, when the courts in- jterpret the Constitution so as to en- throne. injustice, has the right to claim credit for sincerity in any effort to work for industrial and social justice. All other measurés are useless, if we permit a tbody which fs not responsible |fo the people to have the final say as to whether the people shall or shall not in their laws do complete social and indus- trial justice; The doctrine of the divine right of judges to rule the people is every whit as ignoble as the doctrine of the divine right of kings; and this doc- tring is now chiefly and powerfully up- held by the legal and financial represen- |} tatives of privilege.

Failed. CHICAGO, Dec. 10.—Club owners, of the American League began arriving to- day for their annual business meeting, which is slated to commence shortly after noon tomorrow. President Mc- Aleer, head of the world-deating . Red Sox, and Charles A. Comiskey,. presi- dent of the White Sox, were the early arrivals. McAleer came from~ Boston and Comiskey from St. Louls. The ma- tority of the magnates will not put in an appearance until tonight or tomor- row morning. When Col. Bob Hedges of the Browns etrolls into the Congress Hotel, he is likely to find waiting for him one Field- er A. Jones, former White Sox man- ager and would-be successor to Hedges in the government of the Browns. It will be a friendly meeting if it comes off. Jones Wants an Explanation, Jones, who is stopping here on =$his way back from New York to Portland, Ore., plans to remain over until to- morrow night to look up Col. Hedges and ask him what happened to the deal they had on a few winters ago. Be- cause Jones is curious to know, that’s all. He and his brother. Willard Jones, sup- posed they had it all fixed up to buy 50 per cent of the stock of the St, Louis Browns and waited to see if Mr® Hedges could swing a deal to buy in minor stock holdings which would give the Jones brothers 59 per cent of the stock. Hedges later sent word that he could not corral the minor holdings, then came-a meéet- ing of the American’ League and nothing more was heard from, the Browns’ magnate concerning the rest of the deal. Jones thinks he knows what blocks the deal and merely wants his think verified or contradicted, since. he has the opportunity to find out. Jones gaid there was nothing in the report that he would manage the New York Yankees, MeReoy Should Worry About Mayor! Robert McRoy of the Boston Red Sox ar- rived yesterday from Hot Springs, Arx., where he completed arrangements for the training camp of the champions next spring. He sald only two teams would work out fit. McRoy remarked: ‘I shouldn't worry.” when asked about the campaign of Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston to separate the former American League secretary from his connec- tion with the Red Sox; President Johnson of the League says he expects the meeting to extend through two days, but that nothing of great importance to the public will come off.

OW is it that whenever anything H Mound City. This applies especially to the . 8t Louis Browns, which club has cansist- ently been slighted in big league coun- cils and by big league rivals, with the Sole exception of the deal which ‘gave us George Stovall. for ‘‘Lefty’’. George. There's a bare hint that:another hot cross bun' may be coming the way of the Browns through the Fielder Jones case. It was suggested at a Comiskey barty, held here.Monday. afternoon, that Fielder Jones. would manage the New York Highlanders. Comiskey did not say nay to the proposition, not would he confirm it. As he;is the sole person controlling the actions of Jones, by virtue of the reserve rule, he is the only’ man in a position to confirm the truth of the rumor. CHANCE THAT RUMOR IS TRUE. IS reluctance to deny. indicates there may be a chance for Jones to go East, although both Ban Johnson and Jones deny the story. Fielder has been sent to so many places and never arrived that any yaro concerning him is certain to be viewed with suspicion: Jones Is the indirect cause of Hedges’ poor standing in the lIsague and the tean’s failure to win. courtesies from the organization’s heads. The Browns wanted him and Comiskey became 80 angry over Hedges’ effort to land him that he tried to get “the Colonel’ out of the. league. Should he now consent to Jones go- ing to relieve the New York team, in its emergency, after blocking. Hedges ir. his effort to get Fidider, it will be only. one more evidente of the fact that New’ York and Chicago can do fhings in baseball which ‘lesser cities can not. And that sort of policy will sooner or iater wreck any organization. * * & EXTERMINATING THE “BUGS.” HIS is the off-season for bugs, base ball and otherwise. As far as con- ceri: the varigty that once infested the diamond world, it may be said that there no longer is a season when they flourish. A yigorous campaign has wiped them almost completely out, save for the lone exception of Larry McLeaa, who pronfises to change back to a mere baseball player, next season. The extermination of the bug is ac- jis always on the ontside, a-lookin’ poker is distributed, the business extremity is always extended towerd in baseball is handed.around, St. Louis in? Why is that if the incandescent companied by a corresponding increase in playing longevity of the stars of the diamond. At one time a player whv remained near the top for 10 years was considered an exception. The high 31I- aries given players was thought to bs only just return for the short term of years in which they remained efficient. But now the age limit is extending. Men like Young, Wallace, Wagner, Mathewson ard others have provem that a decade of service is only «the prime Of a baseball player's efficiency, even as a. pitcher whére the strain is concentrated. SP a a PIPE THESE METHUSELAHS, OUNG was truly a big league star for two decades; he ‘was a bic league player for 22 years. Wallace after 17 years fn the big league, is a better shortstop than Hedges has been able to find in the last four years of search.
